Abstract:
The Pando Thrower is a weapon of great importance in Disney’s “Strange World.” The explosive Pando fuel mixture is expelled with turbulent, fluid-like motion, with branching arcs of lightning and the electrifying presence of high energy particles. During effects development, previous stylization methods were improved and expanded to enable the combination of distinctly different natural phenomena into a single fantastical effect. In this talk, we present our use of Neural Style Transfer (NST) to reshape volume simulations into lightning-laced electrical reactions.
